Guest guest Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 I went to the OS today because one of my bands broke and had to be put back on. While i was there i asked him to take my stitches out. Well his idea of taking them out was to painful for me to continue with getting them all out. He used on long stitch all the way across the top of my mouth and kinda ripped it out causing me to bleed. It was so painful i told him i would let the rest fall out. Is there any other way to get the stitches out besides salt water? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 Mine fell out after about two weeks. They didn't really bother me enough that I would want to have them pulled. I did use Peroxyl mouthwash, which is basically flavored hydrogen peroxide. I think it helped a little to dissolve my stitches. It also helped to get some of the gunk out of the teeth and braces I couldn't reach. Luke > I went to the OS today because one of my bands broke and had to be > put back on.
